"This album is criminally underrated, even amongst Gentle Giant fans. To me, this is their fourth best, after Three Friends, Free Hand and Octopus. It is definitely their most "folkish" album (especially tracks 2,4 and 5) and I must admit I like it very much. "Funny Ways" is simply amazing. "Isn't..." [+] Reply

"This has to be up there for one of the freakiest album covers I’ve ever seen. However, the album cover kind of fits the album itself, at least, it fits the lyrics.

"A definitive synth programmed album with repetitive rhythms and soaring chords underpinning every track. Stand out examples are The Voice and The Thin Wall." Reply
"Will never forget the first time I put this on the turntable with volume cranked up high. Breaking glass.
